A huge improvement over the current method of having to travel to the regular mission start location for what's supposed to be a "simulation".

I too like this idea. To expand on it, how about this:
1. Injury heals in sick bay
2. Ship heals / repair in engineering.
3. Allow R&D of minor items such as batteries, hypos, etc in the science lab.
3. 3d chess and/or other games in the lounge.
4. Also, how about when you invite another player to your ship, they come in at the transporter pad and not the bridge.

Happened to me as well. Federation turbo lifts have a nasty habit of doing that.

If that is still happening, it needs to be fixed. I hope when they drastically improve ship interiors, they make it as perfect as they can. I will play this game for years if I can enjoy really good ship interiors.
